IS THE BRAND NEW 'AREA 407' POSTER RIPPING OFF ROMERO'S 'DIARY OF THE DEAD'?

Found footage creature feature 'Area 407' (previously known as 'Tape 407') is due for release across the US later this month in select theatres as well as on various VOD and digital outlets. Dread Central in the meantime have just unveiled a new exclusive one-sheet over on their site which you can check out below. The new poster is achingly similar to that of George A Romero's less than satisfying found footage zombie sequel 'Diary of the Dead' from back in 2007. Abigail Schrader, James Lyons, Melanie Lyons, Samantha Lester, Ken Garcia, Samantha Sloyan, Brendan Patrick Connor, Everette Wallin and Jude Gerard Prest all star in 'Area 407' and you can check out the new poster as well as a cheeky look at the fore-mentioned 'Diary of the Dead' poster. Can you spot the differences?

"After taking off on a flight from New York to Los Angeles on New Years Eve, the passengers of Flight 37A are soon sent into shock and alarm as the plane experiences severe turbulence. The relentless weather attack causes panic and terror amongst the passengers until the plane ultimately crashes in a remote government-testing reserve, AREA 407. Through footage captured by two teenage sisters, the accident and crash lead to further events that should not be viewed by the faint of heart. As they continue to film, it becomes apparent that the remaining survivors of Flight 37A may not survive the night."

'Area 407' is set for release here in the UK from 21 May.
